The Arizona Republic’s Michelle Gardner reports Arizona State plans to hire a new AD sometime this spring. Here’s what Gardner says are needs of key focus for a new leader: “Desert Financial Arena is old and outdated. It needs work if the school is to compete in one of the marquee sports in college athletics and one in which the Big 12 is the dominant powerhouse. Sure, the school's non-revenue sports are thriving, but they don't move the needle in terms of the major college landscape. The major sports need to deliver, and a new athletic director needs to see to it that those programs have the resources they need to compete at an elite level. Otherwise, the school will be stuck in mediocrity, much like it has been in the Pac-12.” (link); The D1.dossier for the opening in Tempe is ready to save candidates dozens of valuable hours in preparing for deciding if leading the Sun Devils is the right next move and/or prepare for an interview.

Kansas is estimated to have spent north of $10M on legal fees over the last five fiscal years with four law firms for their work defending KU against NCAA violations, per The Topeka Capital-Journal’s Jordan Guskey. Jayhawks AD Travis Goff noted all four were not necessarily working on the infractions matters simultaneously, adding: “I think it was obviously pretty established by the time I got to KU, as to the approach and to the notion that we were going to — I don’t want to say spare no resources — but to an extent spare few resources to make sure we had all the right expertise and experience to help us navigate it. Going from the NCAA infractions approach to the IARP, which was really an unprecedented process, I think warranted additional kind of layers from the legal team perspective. […] I think something like this is certainly unprecedented, something that in our situation has only happened once — we fully anticipate will only happen once. So, I do think it’s — there’s not really a comparator, necessarily, that you can consider. I mean, it’s significant any way you cut it. Even in the context of a $120 or $125 million budget. But, again, that’s what it’s taken in order to have all the right people at the table, the right expertise, experience, in order to make sure we navigated in the best manner possible, and that’s how it played out.” (link)

More from Goff with WIBW 13’s Katie Maher ahead of the Jayhawks’ Guaranteed Rate Bowl appearance tonight. On the turnaround from fans to expectations of success, Goff credits the program with being ahead of schedule and believes fans just needed to see indicators of success. “Our program has demonstrated to our fans that we should expect success in the sport of football at Kansas. Their optimism even outweighs their excitement for today. As excited as they are about Phoenix and the chance to win a ninth game, which is incredible for this program and where we’ve been, they’re looking forward to the future as well. […] Football in intercollegiate athletics today is harder and more competitive than ever with the transfer portal, NIL, the facilities arms race which we’ve been behind in for generations. So when we worked on the Gateway District and the David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium, how would we demonstrate tangible? And here we are in December of ‘23 and again this theme of being way ahead of schedule to have had demo commence and to have really what would be a transformed gameday experience open for August 2025.” (link)

Tennessee’s upcoming Citrus Bowl kick with Iowa will be limited by the Vols’ inability to run commercials promoting the university as a byproduct of NCAA penalties handed down in connection to former Football HC Jeremy Pruitt. However, the SEC is still free to run spots. As a comparison, last year UT ran one commercial during its Orange Bowl tilt with Clemson. (link)

UAB Football HC Trent Dilfer sits down with Next Up’s Adam Breneman to talk all things football, NIL, transfer portal, building the program and much more. On the portal itself, Dilfer says the Group of 5 schools are not really competing with the Power 5’s because of the finances: “The real numbers are like $15-25M against $300-500K. Don’t think that your little Group of 5 school can compete. It’s not even a competition, but that’s okay.” He goes on to analogize his position the last few weeks to that of Billy Beane and the Oakland A’s: “After all the P5’s go through these guys and after all the economics and negotiations are going on, which ones make us better and fit what we’re about and are affordable.” Asked about his quarterback Jacob Zeno who was, per Dilfer, offered between $400K and $800K to leave for a Power 5 position, Dilfer’s approach was transparency about what would happen after this season, how UAB’s collective cannot compare to that, adding: “The challenge for him and any quarterback that’s going to play for us is does little money now for big money later outweigh guaranteed medium money now, in the big scheme of things for maybe not big money later? Because I would argue this, and I’ll say this very bluntly and I don’t really give a s**t who questions me on this, we’ll develop a quarterback better than anybody in the country.” Lots more. (link)

The Ringer’s Michael Weinreb enumerates the many beliefs about Colorado Football HC Deion Sanders that have been expressed this year and drills down on one in particular: that Sanders’ “public persona defines his ethos, and that there isn’t anything else lurking underneath the hat and behind the ubiquitous sunglasses. But to presume that Coach Prime does not actually possess the soul of a blue-collar, hard-working dude…fails to account for the duality that has defined Sanders from the onset of his life as a public figure.” Former Dallas Morning News columnist Jean-Jacques Taylor, who recently published a book about Sanders, tells Weinreb that when the cameras are off, Sanders often comes across much different than he does in public. “I think the context enhances that type of bravado. And I think it’s necessary to have that type of presentation, that cool pose, as a Black male in this predominantly white setting in order to be successful and ward off all those -isms that Black men face. … He was always the hardest worker. which is why he can’t figure out why other people don’t do it.” By taking the CU job, Weinreb continues, Sanders “embraced what was essentially a blank slate,” and “from day one, Colorado became Coach Prime U, and in the era when NIL money drives recruiting and the transfer portal, his very presence filled the void. … If it works, it opens the door for more nontraditional hires, particularly of Black coaches who might not have otherwise gotten the chance.” Seton Hall law professor Robert Boland puts it like this: “I still think athletic directors are going to hire more traditionally—you’re a coach with a hot program who has done well. But I think we have shifted the model.” Lots more. (link)

Morgan State Deputy AD/SWA Erlease Wagner, Sun Belt Conference Deputy Commissioner Kathy Keene and Utah State Executive Associate AD/SWA Amy Crosbie sit down with AthleticDirectorU’s Steph Garcia Cichosz at the 2023 Women Leaders National Convention to discuss the power of institutional knowledge as a senior leader, the benefits of longevity at a single institution, how they continue to step out of their comfort zone and more. All three credit the constant change in staff, student-athletes, leaders, membership changes and peers with inspiration for pushing forward. Keene noting of the membership changes for the SBC: “One of the benefits of being there for so long is that you had the history, but then when you brought in the four new schools, they had their own ideas. They had their own way of doing things and so being open to that process was important for me and the staff, but it also moved us into a new era so it revitalized me being in that position for so long. It also revitalized all of our members because we knew our principles and core values that we didn’t want to lose, but also to be open to some new experiences, ideas and processes and I think we’re all better for it.” More.

CNBC’s Alex Sherman explains that Warner Bros. Discovery’s discussions with Paramount Global may entice NBCUniversal to join the chat, though he notes the structure of a WBD-NBCU merger would be important if it is to pass regulatory muster. For one, Universal and Warner Bros. are the top two U.S. movie studios by revenue this year. Additionally, Comcast owns MSNBC, “which may or may not be a problem for regulators given that Warner Bros. Discovery owns CNN.” If Comcast spins out NBCUniversal to merge with WBD, Sherman notes it could “theoretically give Zaslav debt-free earnings to strengthen the combined company’s balance sheet. That might be more enticing than taking on Paramount Global’s $15B of debt. Warner Bros. Discovery has nearly $45B of debt and has worked to bring down its leverage all year by boosting free cash flow. … Opening discussions with Paramount Global should give Warner Bros. Discovery a read on where Comcast stands on dealmaking. Is Comcast OK with Paramount Global and Warner Bros. Discovery merging? Or does [Comcast CEO Brian] Roberts want to combine with Warner Bros. Discovery instead, leaving Paramount Global without an obvious dance partner?” (link)

The U.S. GDP expanded at an annualized 4.9% rate during Q3, revised down from the previously reported 5.2% pace the Commerce Department's Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) forecasted in its third estimate of third-quarter GDP. Economists had expected GDP growth would be unrevised, but Reuters’ Lucia Mutikani notes the quarter still represents the fastest rate of expansion since the fourth quarter of 2021. (link)

Home sales ticked up from 13-year lows in November after five consecutive months of declines, even as mortgage rates remaining near their highest levels in two decades continued to weigh on sales. Existing-home sales, which make up most of the housing market, increased 0.8% in November from the prior month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 3.82M, according to the National Association of Realtors. November sales fell 7.3% from a year earlier. Existing-home sales for the full year in 2023 are on track to be the lowest since at least 2011. (link)
